Matty Taylor to offer balance again

What a relief. Taylor played for 67 minutes in a "behind closed doors" game with Ipswich - which we lost - and now is in contention for the game against Derby.

I don't expect him to start against the Rams actually. I reckon Allardyce will back the team to win that one regardless, and hold Taylor back for the bigger challenge, away to Middlesborough, when he will definitely want five fit and fresh men in midfield.

It's another huge week ahead of us. Six points and we will be sitting very pretty indeed, even though the style of play is bloody ugly!

A cold Tuesaday night up at the Riverside. History says that there will be only one result up there and it doesn't involve West Ham getting any points.I wonder if anything has really changed on Fat Sam's watch. Time will tell.

(Cheers Tom, an endorsement like that would outweigh 15 million idiots wanting to close this site down.)
